Mary Says That People Are Really Very Beautiful Inside by Mary West People are beautiful. Since I have been writing this column lots of people talk to me and tell me their opinions. I got to thinking about all the people I have met and gotten to know in my travels and I feel inspired to talk about them. ' I once asked a fellow what he had won in boat racing. He said, "Nothing, I just fill out the row, but I get so excited when I'm out there running that it doesn't matter that I never win." I have one friend who is very very wealthy and he had a gigantic tear in his coveralls, and he was struggling to hold the back of his pants together until he could get to his truck. Well, later in the day he had on the same coveralls and had them all pinnned back together. He was just a people. Everyone has an opinion and likes to be heard, and I like to listen. Farmers have a great philosophy and take a down to earth look at the way tilings are. I know engineers who can dazzle you with their knowledge, but then you a hear a story about how one works with handicapped elderly people, and he is just a people. I especially like a grouch, cause they are usually old softies. People like to be recognized. I don't think that we ever outgrow the need for a pat on the head.
